+1 to "opt"

Re: Additional project downloads

[Ismaël Mejía]

Hello,

One question (a little bit off-topic but complementary), will the
beam-runner for flink be eventually considered as an official flink addon
(and distributed like discussed here) ?

"opt" sounds good to me. I just wrote "libraries" out of a lack of
creativity ;-)

Re: Additional project downloads

[Greg Hogan]

Also the metrics reporters.

The circumstances for this request are that I wanted to use the metrics
reporters for 1.1.1 and had to go looking on Maven Central (also had to
download dependencies, which may be an issue with packaging). I'm also
looking to update the Gelly documentation to walkthrough running the
examples and was looking to avoid pointing users to Maven Central.

This sounds like a nice compromise, to include the extra jars in the
download but off the default classpath. The distinction between lib and
libraries may be subtle and not as applicable to the other jars. Would
something like "opt" be too obtuse?

Re: Additional project downloads

[Stephan Ewen]

The downloads would be just the components' jar files, or everything?

At some point, someone suggested to add the jars of all libraries (gelly,
ml, ...) and connectors into the download tarball:

  - bin/
  - conf/
  - lib/ (core flink runtime and apis)
  - libraries/
   +-gelly/
   +-CEP/
   +-...
  - examples/

Would that be interesting to people?

I agree that it would be good to offer these kind of convenience download
links.

Re: Additional project downloads

[Robert Metzger]

Maybe we should put a link to maven central. We could parameterize the link
so that it always links to the current release linked on our downloads page.
